Wacoal Corporation was founded in 1946 by successful Japanese businessman Koichi Tsukamoto as Wako Shoji. This company was a trading corporation that focused primarily on sourcing and crafting high demand western-inspired jewelry for Japanese women. After noticing the increasing trend of Japanese women adopting western styles of lingerie and dress to wear along with their Wako Shoji jewelry, he began to perform extensive research in American lingerie catalogs. After realizing how lucrative the market was, Tsukamoto decided to bring it to Japan, founding the company, Wako Corp. Their first product, the bra pad, was such an immediate and shocking success among customers in Japan that the company decided to expand worldwide. Tsukamoto changed the company name to the more western "Wacoal Corp" to appeal to a larger market and went public with a full line of innovative intimate apparel. Since this initial launch, Wacoal has quickly become one of the number one sources of women’s intimate apparel around the world due to products that are renowned for their innovative yet stylish design and high level of wearability for women of all shapes and sizes. Each piece is designed to fit and flatter the feminine form, offering comfortable support where needed while enhancing a woman’s appearance and giving her a boost in self-confidence. In a world where women’s lingerie was designed for functionality rather than function or form, Wacoal was an immediate hit. In addition, Wacoal is active with women’s foundations, working directly with Susan G. Komen for breast cancer awareness. With their dedication to high quality products and assistance in advancements in women's health, Wacoal is the perfect intimate apparel choice for any woman!
